You didn't really ask the question quite properly.
The "tuned" engines are modified versions of the standard engines eg. Novarossi Flash .12 is standard and the Flash .12 "Tuned" is factory modified.

Its not so much to lessen the strain on the starter-box, even though it will.
It's so that the engine can 'pop' over a little easier because the compression is less. As normal, the p/s is really...

Bottom end could be too rich, causing the excess fuel to "put out" the plug?
Otherwise the bad plug idea could be the culprit.

With the RTR engine it comes with, 16% will do fine, but if you want more power, you can use 20% or even 25% - but the more nitro you use, the quicker it will wear out the engine.

Don't reduce the shimming, it would only cause problems instead of solving any. Adding .1mm usually moves the power up, but it isn't guaranteed, plus you would lose some bottom end power as well.

Just use the cutout lines provided on the body, and check to see if the wheels (at maximum diameter) hit the body, or able able to catch the body at all. Then just enlarge it where it is needed.
